Here’s the thing—your sharpest competitors aren’t just running better ads or working harder. They’re quietly mastering profit protection, uncovering invisible threats, and tapping into growth channels most brands overlook. This edition is your shortcut to the playbook that’s keeping them ahead in 2025.
Inside, you’ll get founder-to-founder takeaways from three big “aha” moments:
-
How Amazon sellers are losing up to 50% of sales overnight from hidden review and catalog issues—and the proven, data-driven process for recovering lost revenue, getting negative reviews removed, and protecting your listings before disaster strikes. You’ll hear from eCom Triage’s Danan Coleman, who’s helped brands recover 5–15% of unfair reviews and set up instant alerts so you’re never blindsided again.
-
Why the best founders are ditching hustle culture and intentionally designing lives that match their business success. Get the framework for applying strategic thinking to your personal life—think “memory dividends,” time buckets, and relationship tracking—so you can build a business that doesn’t burn you out.
-
Where influencer marketing is really working in 2025 (hint: it’s not just Instagram). Top brands are shifting budget to TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Twitch, Pinterest, and Discord—using micro-influencers, long-term partnerships, and AI-powered discovery tools to build authentic advocacy and reach buyers where they actually hang out.
Plus, the Tool of the Week spotlights Retention.com, which helps brands identify up to 98% of anonymous website visitors, grow their email lists 10–15x faster, and supercharge Klaviyo flows—even as privacy changes make tracking tougher. Real brands are seeing $1M+ in incremental revenue and 53x ROI by recovering lost visitors and building persistent retargeting audiences.
If you’re ready to stop guessing, outmaneuver hidden threats, and unlock the strategies your best competitors already know, this edition is packed with actionable frameworks and next-move insights you can implement today.
